EUREKA GOLD is an off-shears spray-on backline <strong>lice</strong>treatment indicated <strong>for</strong> the <strong>control</strong> of organophosphate (OP)susceptible and synthetic pyrethroid (SP) resistant strains ofthe <strong>sheep</strong> body louse (Bovicola ovis).Eureka Gold is manufactured in Australia and marketed by<strong>Coopers</strong> <strong>Animal</strong> <strong>Health</strong>, a supplier of <strong>lice</strong> <strong>control</strong> products toAustralian farmers <strong>for</strong> over 120 years.Eureka Gold combines the proven <strong>effective</strong>ness of diazinon <strong>for</strong>rapid knockdown of <strong>lice</strong> with the convenience of an off-shearsapplication.ROTATE TO EUREKA GOLDOver the last decade, farmers have relied on backliner InsectGrowth Regulators (IGRs) <strong>for</strong> <strong>effective</strong> <strong>lice</strong> <strong>control</strong>. This hasbeen due mainly to the convenience that applying backlinersoffer over saturation dipping and the widespread distribution ofsynthetic pyrethroid resistant <strong>lice</strong> throughout Australia.To help prolong the useful life of currently available <strong>lice</strong> <strong>control</strong>treatments, it is important that consideration be given torotating between <strong>effective</strong> chemical groups to reduce the rateof resistance development.The use of Eureka Gold in a rotational <strong>lice</strong> <strong>control</strong> programmenot only provides the farmer with a convenient, high volume,rapid knockdown application, but will also aim to extend the<strong>effective</strong> life of other lousicide chemical groups.Eureka Gold allows an Organophosphate (OP) to be introducedinto the rotation without the need to dip the <strong>sheep</strong>.Treatment Off-Shears Convenient Rapid Controls SPApplication Application Knockdown Resistant LiceEureka Gold √ √ √ √Insect GrowthRegulator √ √ X √Pour-OnsSyntheticPyrethroid √ √ √ XPour-OnsInsect Growth X X X √Regulator DipsOrganophosphate X X √ √Dips
